RALEIGH The conversation between Matthew James Phelps and the 911 dispatcher he phoned just after 1:10 a.m. Friday sounded almost clinical.Phelps gives the dispatcher his northeast Raleigh address, name and phone number.“Tell me exactly what happened,” the dispatcher said to him.Phelps sighed and replied, “I think I killed my ..,” according to a 911 recording made public Friday afternoon.

"I had a dream, and then I turn on the lights and she's dead on the floor," Matthew Phelps told a 911 dispatcher. "I have blood all over me, and there's a bloody knife on the bed, and I think I did it."

Yeah, no. Corididan does not cause violent behavior. I am guessing the authorities will find a motive. I was just thinking how often Raleigh is mentioned in murders lately. There was the couple who killed the guy's ex-wife and brought her body to Texas, the Google guy who may have been innocent in the murder of his wife, and the guy whose best friend since junior high killed his wife. Weird, because Raleigh isn't a gigantic city.

While I'm sure it can, did ya listen to the 911 call? Freaking out on cold meds my ass!

well according to the 911 call, he awoke to find himself covered in dried blood. so his claim at least would be that he took too much medicine, woke up and stabbed his wife, got back into bed, slept, woke up later and found what he had done. Anyway my point is, he could have been "freaking out on cold meds" hours earlier but by the time of the call was in a different state.

Sounds like he planned his defense in advance! Notice he doesn't know what happened, but had already figured out cause and effect. That's quick thinking for just having discovered your stabbed-to-death dead wife. I wonder if his computer and phone searches will find "coricidin" searches. Or was he sly enough to dispose of hard drives and history?
